I bought a DVD yesterday because I wanted to start a strengthening program...I've never done yoga at all before, and sort of wrote it off as being "too easy" and not a good workout. Wow. I bow down to all you yoga ladies because it was HARD. My downward dog really needs some work.
On the upside, I'll be in great shape if I can keep this up throughout the next 6 months!

I have been debating whether to get a video or join a class.....glad to hear the video is good. I may go get one tonight.
Thanks again
Ah crap, I can't remember right now....seems like a pretty basic one, just bought it at the pharmacy...wish I could remember the name!
I've been on Amazon.com this morning looking for prenatal fitness videos. I can't decide between yoga and pilaties (sp?). I'm scared of yoga because I'm not super flexible.
Does the one you have use a ball? I've seen them online and not sure how I feel about it.
No, no ball...you just need a small cushion for the video I use. Even though you're not flexible I would still recommend it! (I'm not really either). Yes, it does make you sore and shows you how unflexible you actually are, but its so great for the muscles! Plus its verrry relaxing and has a little meditation part where you "connect" with your baby.
I actually cried when I did the meditation because I thought it was such a nice moment....wow, I'm a loser! haha
Awww, I love it! If you remember what video it was, let me know. I think that sounds like something I would really enjoy!

I will! I'll make note of it tonight and let you know..
Would you mind letting me know which one it was as well?
